Don't forget to degauss your monitor

It realigns the leaking electrons in the deep quantum field inside your CRT

It makes your monitor invisible to magnetic mines

Doing this back then was strangely satisfying and yet creepy at the same time like you were seeing reality distort itself.

how do magnets even work

see

CRTs usually had some type of magnetic coil around the screen.

When you hit the degauss button, it makes the shadow-mask have a very small, random magnetic field, correcting the colors.

Basically: Magnets used to retrieve the rainbow from the shadow realm

OK

I'm using a Samsung right now too and I never really understood what are these two for, they just make the image worse.

Emulate old TVs?

I don't think so

I think it's persistent degaussing that keeps the degaussing coil constantly working with AC current at very small levels.

Widens the range of the electron beam
prevents overscan or underscan.

no, that's what these are for

CRT is a thinking’s man OLED

The way the grille and beam work, they might require adjustment over time or in specific modes
That's there to correct them manually

The monitor degausses itself everytime it turns on. It's why there's a buzz when they turn on.
This causes the need for degaussing
No, the monitor wouldn't display anything if it was constantly being degaussed.

CRT is really just a big capacitor with two set of plates to use Lorentz's force to manipulate stream of electrons and a ion canon to provide electrons. So to my understanding, chroma and luma on display can magnetise from electrons constantly hitting it (electromagnetic effect) and demagnetisation just launches a strong electromagnet with reverse polarisation.

What year is it?

why wouldn't you just screencap it retard?

This is *why* you need to degauss, dumbass

Enjoy dying

what the heck is degaussing and what does it do?

Nice upvote, cockbreath. It's time to go back.

>auto startup degauss use to randomly happen during day at old job (long time ago)
Turned out it was being triggered by space heater of woman in adjacent cubicle on same circuit.

MicroLED is a thinking man's CRT

oh shit I completely forgot this was a thing. I have so much magnetic toy shit on my desk, if I had a crt today my monitor would be completely fugged

>it's 2019 and no flatscreen display exists with the same degree of motion clarity and multiresolution support as crts from two decades ago
what went wrong?

MicroLED is a brainlet's VFD

CRTs don't look nice on people's minimalistic desks, and they're "power hogs" and "cost more to own in the long run"

Maybe if Sony had pushed their flat screen CRTs and the angled options a bit more we could have something like that. Until then, enjoy your bezels

Show me a VFD monitor. You won't because you can't.
That said VFDs on AV equipment are comfy as hell.

>minimalistic desks
A shitty ikea desk that bows under a load of 20kg isn't minimalistic. It's just shit.

Correction, minimalistic *design*

Flat white surface, sharp edges, open windows. Maybe I'm out of touch but this is what the last modern house I was in looked like. Vice City: The Furniture Set

woosh

This is Jow Forums. If you prefer form over function I suggest you head over to

When did I say I wanted form over function? I wouldn't have 3 CRTs on my desk if I gave a damn about that

CRTs are electron guns. They shoot beams of electrons at the phosphors in the front of the screen to light them up. Electrons are affected by magnets, so putting a magnet near the tube will cause the beams to distort.

Fuck, SED could have saved us from this hell.

that's not the fucking noise it made bitch and you know it.

Prove it, cockface.

A lot of crt monitors don't even have degaussing coils built in. Mostly cheaper ones, but you're absolutely wrong that they all degauss when you turn them on and thays why they buzz. It may be something in specific models, but isn't commonplace. It takes a few seconds to get a good degauss, longer than it takes to turn on if its warm(recenlty turned off).

It could have but patents ensured it didn't.

I had the same monitor, ran it at 1280x960.
